Natural Paint Recipes


Natural Paint Recipes


Nearly all these paint recipes were taken from "The Natural Paint Book" ( ISBN 0-87596-914-3) which I really cannot say enough good things about. I think everybody should have it on their bookshelf. Some of the recipes were corrected where imperial and metric units did not agree.

PIGMENTS

Only a small percent of paint is pigment. But it's what gives it color.

WAX

About wax

floor  
liming  

An important natural finish.


BINDERS

Keep stuff together

The binder is the "glue" that keeps all the stuff in paint together.


SOLVENTS

Use with care

Nasty buggers those solvents. Used in producing oil based paints.


OILS-WAXES

About oils and waxes

More for wood finishes than walls.


RESOURCES

Network resources

Where to find stuff.
